Can I get some answers wrong and still pass the exam?

Yes, you can. Uxcel Certification exams use adaptive testing, which means the difficulty of each question is based on how you performed on the previous ones.

If you answer many questions correctly, you'll progress to more advanced topics. This system prioritizes skill level over the total number of correct answers. So, even if you miss a few difficult questions, your overall score can still reflect strong performance — enough to pass the exam.

Conversely, if you only answer easier questions correctly, your score might be lower — even if you get most of them right — because you didn’t demonstrate mastery of more advanced concepts.
